All this only suggest towards the great intellectual abilities of Kabir. Kabir is called a mysterious person because there are number of things which are still not known about him. Kabir was a Muslim weaver; however, some stories about him suggest that he was born of a Hindu mother but brought up by Muslim weaver family.
However, there is no confirmation about this fact is available so far. Kabir is also believed to be illiterate and he used to give his discloses orally. Today most of the literature available about Kabir is collected by the follower of Kabir. Kabir and his verses also got place in Sikh religious book Shri Guru Granth Shahib. Kabir has made great influence on the Indian people and culture; and still there are large numbers of people across the world those are getting benefited from his work.
Kabir lived his life very simply and as per his own terms and conditions. He does not like to be followed or treated like a big saint or Guru. His advice to the people is to search god inside and not in the outside world. His complete work is really a great master piece which every person needs to read for at least one time.
